EcoOlive Container Blend is a blend specifically developed for Container candles. Supplied in pellets, it is suitable for further blending with fragrances and oil soluble dyestuffs. No animal products are used, and no animal testing has been carried out in its manufacture. EcoOlive Container Blend wax is a 100% natural blend of predominantly olive wax with natural performance additives to improve burn and scent throw. This wax does not contain any genetically modified ingredients, palm, or paraffin products. It is bio-degradable and vegan friendly. EcoOlive Container Blend provides excellent hot and cold scent throw, a smooth surface finish with a subtle gloss. It only requires a single pour and is easy to remove cleanly from moulds. This wax can take a fragrance load of up to 12% with fragrance oils designed for use with natural waxes. We recommend melting this wax to around 75°C and pouring at 65°C with a cure time of 48 hours. As with all candle manufacture, we recommend thorough testing with all wax, fragrance oil and wick combinations. Containers Containers should be clean and free of contaminants. They should be at least at room temperature, although pre-heating to approx. 45 - 50°C can be beneficial. Colour When using powder dyes, heat the wax to approx. 75°C, add the dye and mix until dissolved. Powder dyes may also be dissolved in fragrance and then added to the melted wax, be sure that the dye has dissolved completely before adding. When using powder dyes dissolved in fragrance, liquid dyes, or colour blocks heat the wax to 70°C. If you wish to make your candle darker or “richer”, add a little black dye to the colour you are using. Fragrance EcoOlive Container Blend has been designed for fragrance at levels between 5 - 12%. Fragrance which is specifically developed for use with natural waxes is highly recommended. Burn pool size and depth greatly affect fragrance throw so correct wicking is paramount.
